Do you know of any good places in the Northern VA area to get good Korean food?

Can't stand kimchi with sour notes. I love spice in my kimchi, LOTS of it.
Just had mildly sour cabbage kimchi with Korean pork knuckles on Friday. Wonderful combo. And then a platter of raw oysters with a fiery kimchi (not cabbage), also went together well.

I think the fiery kimchi is made with daikon. I love that stuff.

Whilst I like eating kimchi, I love bulgogi! There are tons of Korean restaurants in Sydney (lots of Korean migrants here), and they make pretty authentic kimchi (some of my friend's parents make kimchi at home).

If I go into a store to buy some kimchi (I have a great asian market near me), what should I look for?

skchin Jan 21, 2010 12:38 pm
Depends on what you like. Usually there are 3 kinds... cabbage, daikon, and water Kimchi.

A good start is to look for kimchi that's actually made in Korea, not under licence in another country.

US Korean grocers don't import kimchi from abroad. All kimchi stock is locally produced or from distributors in big Korean populated cities.

So, you're saying to just buy some, or rather a few different kinds/brands and check them out to see what I like. I can get down with that. Any particular recommendations, though?

It really depends on the season and what you are eating the kimchi with.The own taste of the kimchi. IMHO, is best enjoyed by accompanying it with just a bowl of rice and a simple soup.

Yes I like kimchi.

No a Korean travel forum is not necessary.

I like it but sadly just know the straight kimchi version. The OP's dishes sound yummy.

I'm gonna take that advice. I love simplistic eating. That sounds good.

For starters, just get a bowl of white rice, lightly grilled Spam, and some kimchi on the side.
